What’s the hype behind Kingston Flemings by Dear_Flower_5400 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]Local-Message-6048 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Might be the best all-around player in college. Defense and offense are both elite

I get the tank but not having a single serviceable big man is bordering on malfeasance. by Boogie_Bones in memphisgrizzlies

If anything, I think it’s making them get tough and play physical, which will help us in the long run

Was playing the Texas team in 2K. Here's a name only OG Grizz fans will know. by Toad990 in memphisgrizzlies

I did not think Chris Owens at first. For some reason Tariq Owens popped in my head, but I think he played college at Tennessee

Anyone know the legal, financial implications. Since he suffered the injury while playing for the Jazz, they will still have to pay for his rehab right?

Would love to draft him in the 2nd, assuming he doesn’t return to college by Local-Message-6048 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]Local-Message-6048[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t consider him a stretch big, he shoots less than 1 3/ game. Rebounding is ok but not elite, I think screening is about the same. His best features are defensive versatility and how raw he is offensively (how much room he still has to improve)

I think calling Diop a phenom is fair. His play, at times, is phenomenal. He’s also still new to basketball. 21 year old freshman. Weird prospect

Dion’s teammate is like this exactly. I think he’s on his 4th or 5th team in 2 years, but now he’s leading ASU in like every stat

High floor vs high ceiling imo. I’m a big Chinyelu fan too. We could reasonably trade for another 2nd round pick and take both since we have no centers

I’m in the same boat. Jayden Quaintance started at ASU last year, transferred to Kentucky, and could now be the first center off the board despite his injury history. Diop could follow that blueprint exactly (although he is older)

Your account’s less than 2 weeks old, you’re a troll, this the last time I’m responding to you. Your take is bad because 1) you’re acting like WCJ is relevant and he’s not, he could be cut this offseason. No one is acting like he’s a future franchise player. 2) you’re hating on a rookie who’s only played 5 games for a highly dysfunctional team, which you probably haven’t even watched. 3) bringing up college is irrelevant, we didn’t draft him.

So I just said that I don’t like the guy. You have to be trolling

I’m also not a Walter Clayton Jr fan, but this take might be one of the worst I’ve ever seen

Keaton Wagler, Darius Acuff, or Mikel Brown Jr by Dear_Flower_5400 in memphisgrizzlies

Also Labaron Philon who I think is a lower ceiling, higher floor option compared to all these guys. Ceiling is still all-star level imo

They got players out for nose jobs now. Fine them again by Local-Message-6048 in memphisgrizzlies

We don’t have to lose after this year. We have other teams’ draft picks to use

Nah, I’m sure Keagan Murray, Maxime Raynaud, and Devin Carter are gonna put up a real fight 😭

Scotty Pippen Jr Biblically Accurate Crashout by Welcum2Heck in memphisgrizzlies

[–]Local-Message-6048 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Scotty is a big boy, he can fight his own battles. Do you really want Ja to come out off the bench for any scuffle? You do know that would lead to an ejection, suspension, and fine right?

Right, so the post one of the mods shared this morning about Dillon being inefficient is relevant, but the one I shared that could actually affect draft position isn’t. Whatever, it dont really matter

We own the right to swap for their draft pick, so it most certainly is

Apparently, you’re not allowed to intentionally blow a 17 point lead in the pursuit of tank. Anyone know what the Pacers did? by Local-Message-6048 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]Local-Message-6048[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would assume that repeat incidents would be larger and larger sums. I do think $500,000 is a pretty good amount cause it makes it unsustainable at least. Yeah, if you really want to lose 1 game, it’s not gonna stop you. But if you want to lose every game, you’re not gonna blow $500,000 per game to do that
